Insulin Pumps

The insulin pump is an alternative to manually injecting insulin. Insulin is delivered from the pump through a thin tube, and then through a needle or catheter placed under the skin. In addition to not having to endure the pain and inconvenience that multiple daily injections can cause, pump users have more control of their insulin flow than do people taking injections. Today's insulin pumps are extremely safe, comfortable, and easy to wear.
